LipidGenie is one of many free and innovative resources offered by NCQBCS.
Lipid Genie is an interactive software that can facilitate lipid identification, provide evidence for gene function, and can reveal acyl-chain specificity for ABHD1 and ABHD2.
This open-sourced software is available free and online at lipidgenie.com.
Registration for the 3rd annual North American Mass Spectrometry Summer School is now open.
This free event, which will take place June 15-18, 2020 in Madison, Wisconsin will feature world-leading experts in Mass Spectrometry, who will deliver lectures and tutorials on both plant (NSF) and animal (NIH) mass spec applications.
Program details and registration can be found on the NCQBCS website, located here:

Please help us spread the word about Mass Spec Summer School by telling your colleagues and friends who might benefit from attending.
Registration for this opportunity closes on March 1.
Oliver Fiehn from the University of California-Davis delivered a perspective lecture on Metabolite Identification at the NCQBCS first annual North American Mass Spectrometry Summer School in 2018.
The 2nd Annual North American Mass Spectrometry Summer School, which took place from July 21-24 at the Wisconsin Institute for Discovery, was a success.
The event’s goal was to encourage and stimulate a community of scientists who are interested in mass spectrometry, plants and human health. This included tutorial and research lectures, workshops and a poster viewing session. Topics ranged from data analysis, chromatography and PTMs, to data integration, intellectual property and spectral interpretation, among others.
Featured speakers included Joshua Coon from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, Ulrike Kusebauch from the Institute for Systems Biology, Beatrix Ueberheide from the New York University School of Medicine, Lingjun Li from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, Judit Villen from the University of Washington, and Evan Williams from the University of California-Berkley, among many others.
Summer School was followed by the 11th Annual MaxQuant Summer School, which took place from July 24-26 in the same location. Students were able to attend one or both events.
Next year’s summer school will take place June 15-18.

The Mitok/Coon/Attie article “Islet proteomics reveals genetic variation in dopamine production resulting in altered insulin secretion” was selected as the representative ‘Genomics and proteomics’ article for the Journal of Biological Chemistry 2018 Retrospective Collection called “The year in JBC: 2018.” When choosing the representative articles, the journal editors considered hundreds of papers to come up with what they felt best represented the exciting advances reported in JBC last year.
